    The counters.

    Look at how gunshy he was. They all get like this, scared to throw anything with conviction. Afraid of being countered. I Never thought I'd see the day where Pac was tamed like this. It almost looks fake.:-(

    I notice he didn't have any issues with his shoulder when he was flinching like a scared little *****, weird?

    To rattle floyd's cage up you have to accept you are going to get tagged with your fair share of those, manny didn't fancy it. Maidana got a ton of right hands for his troubles but he plowed on through them unscathed and his chin hasn't exactly been iron in the past. I don't believe Manny would've been hurt, it wouldn't have been a walk in the park but he could've taken them and dished out some harder punishment himself.

    Difference between natural cautiousness and flat out fear. Manny displayed the latter.

    Floyd landed two hard rights in the first round, Pac was gun shy from that point on. You are absolutely right, Pac had no conviction or commitment on his punches.

    Like Jim Lampley said during the Hoya fight, "fighting Floyd Mayweather is a dose of cold reality". Manny had never been outclassed before. He was in a fight where he had no answers; so much so that he had to resort to delusions of him winning and supposedly severe injuries that no one heard about until the fight was over.

    Yet you all don't see the irony in this, Floyd flinches and runs everytime anyone throws a punch at him, or like in Mayweather-Maidana he started looking to the ref to save him.

    Pacquiao is traumatized.

    People say Floyd has no power but he obviously has enough to make Pacquiao flinch like a ponce.
